I miss you every day and am grateful I stumbled upon this page, I think what they wrote about you is perfect. I wish I could call you and catch up, I wish you could visit us this summer like you said you wanted to. I imagined knowing you for a long longer than we got together. Some part of me went with you when you passed. I love you always and wish the best for everyone who is missing you right now like I am.
I'm adding a photo because I knew you liked this one.
My name is Ellis now, I wanted you to know. Rest easy, you'll always be my chosen family.
